On the protest of Shiv Sena-Bharatiya Janata Party and other Hindu organisations against the arrest of Sadhvi Pragya Singh, Maharashtra Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh said on Thursday that secular parties or those having trust in law and judiciary do not interfere in criminal investigations.
Pragya Singh Thakur is national president of Vande Matram organisation and was
arrested in connection with
Malegaon blast.
Speaking on Marathi signboard issue, strongly raised by the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena and Shiv Sena, Deshmukh said there is a law making
it compulsory to have signboards in Marathi along with other languages and give priority to locals. However, these laws were not implemented properly, he added.
